Try wiggling the key after you start it. The ignition switches in these are notorious for wear and this causes a multitude of symptoms, including yours. The good news it is very simple to replace and relatively inexpensive. Other symptoms are cutting off soon after starting, dash lights remaining on, shift lock not disengaging, and other stuff. If jiggling it dosn't work try holding pressure on the key after starting it but stop just short of grinding the starter. If it does grind its ok but just back off a hair and see if your symptoms subside.
